Chinamasa had to be held back by Zimbabwe Ambassador to UK Gabriel Machinga
from causing harm to Kate Hoey, the Labour MP for Vauxall in London. Nobody
knows exactly what triggered the fight, but sources told SW Radio Africa that
the incident happened as soon as Hoey went over to greet Chinamasa.

‘They had barely exchanged pleasantries when Chinamasa raised his
voice and charged at Hoey accusing her of ‘speaking like an imperialist.’
Ambassador Machinga quickly moved in and separated them,’ a source said

Zanu PF is itching for a fight
with the West, Britain in particularly. The party is going to do ride rough
shod over the people of Zimbabwe once again deny them their right to a meaningful
vote in the coming elections by using all manner of dirty tricks including violence.
The party is not going to tolerate regime change and it is not going to stop at
anything to ensure there is no regime change. And when the criticism starts, the
party will have a ready-made lightening conductor - the fight it has just
picked with the West.

For the last ten years Zanu PF
has hidden its repressive political agenda by accusing the West of seeking
regime change in Zimbabwe before the party had seized farms from the white
farms. Now with all but a handful the white farms still left in the hands of
whites; Mugabe has to find something else to quarrel with the West over and he
is not going to rest until he has found it.

PM
Tsvangirai and his MDC friends were real naïve in allowing Mugabe and Zanu PF
to retain their dictatorial powers and, worse still, the people of Zimbabwe
were foolish enough to believe Tsvangirai’s lies that the rubbish Copac
constitution would bring free and fair elections in Zimbabwe. The nation is now
at Mugabe and Zanu PF’s mercy and they are a merciless lot!

Mugabe and Tsvangirai and their deputies are expected to get hefty
packages running into hundreds of thousands of dollars, while ministers would
each get US$30 000, residential stands in affluent suburbs, three luxury cars
including Mercedes Benz and top-of-the-range SUVs.

SADC leaders have complained of PM Tsvangirai and his MDC friends getting
"too comfortable in government and forgetting their presence was meant to
create an environment conducive for credible, free and fair elections".
Well we can see for ourselves just how comfortable and cozy the MDC leaders
have become and no wonder they did not want to upset Mugabe by demanding the
implementation of the GPA reforms.

Implementing reforms = free and fair elections

free and fair elections = regime change

regime change = Mugabe incessant screaming rage!

Rather than risk Mugabe’s rage and to say
nothing of this latest golden handshake PM Tsvangirai and his MDC friends
thought it best to betray the people who are literally dying for free and fair
elections!

Once the new Copac constitution is enacted, will it stop abuse of power such as the arrest of Lawyer Beatrice Mtetwa? Sadly, the answer is no! This Copac constitution is too weak and feeble to deliver free and fair elections or end the country's culture of politucal violence contrary to the lies Tsvangirai has said.A
good constitution should have the checks and balance to stop one or a few
individuals hijacking one or more institutions of government and thus put themselves
above the law. Sadly, that was exactly what had happened in Zimbabwe, Mugabe
and the Joint Operations Command (JOC) had hijacked the presidency, parliament,
the judiciary, the Police, the CIO, the Army, etc., etc. to put themselves
above the law creating this monster called the Zanu PF dictatorship.

The
GPA proposed a simple solution to end the dictatorship - implement the
democratic reforms designed to cut the umbilical cords tying the state
institutions to Mugabe and JOC and thus dismantle the dictatorship brick by
brick. The new democratic constitution was going to reaffirm these institutional
checks and balance and their independence.

An
independent and reformed ZRP, for example, would carry out its statutory duties
of enforcing the law and keep law and order in a none partisan way. No one will
be above the law. Under those conditions, of course, there will be free and
fair elections.

Mugabe
refused to have the reforms implemented and Tsvangirai, out of breath taking incompetence,
accepted this. Without the reforms the Police, CIO, etc. have remained under
the total control of the Zanu PF dictatorship; there to do its bidding.

This
Copac constitution was written knowing no reforms will be implement because the
"presidency (the dictatorship) was sacrosanct" as Mugabe would say.
And so we ended up with a dictator's creed with page upon page listing all the
human rights and freedoms to hide its dictatorial core. No one will ever enjoy human
rights in this Copac rubbish because they are nothing more that the sugar coating
of a cyanide tablet.

Tsvangirai
and MDC have lied that this Copac rubbish would deliver free and fair elections
and a new Zimbabwe, focusing on the sugar coating but saying nothing of the
poison, and the people believed them and voted in drove to approve the new constitution.
Over 3 million voted in the referendum and 95% said yes; very impressive indeed
and MP Mwonzora and Minister Obert Gutu have blowing the trumpet, drumming their
chests like silverbacks and took their laps of honour.

The
real and ultimate test of this Copac constitution is whether the elections will
be free and fair -free of violence, never mind all the other niceties like free
media, etc. Or will the nation be dragged into yet another bloody election
process because the Police, CIO, etc. are still doing the Zanu PF bidding, the
dictatorship is untouched, was all Tsvangirai and MDC have been saying about
Copac delivering free and fair elections was all hogwash, nonsense!

The problem is not with the constitution
per se but that this is a weak and feeble constitution which allows some people
to be above the law. I have said again and again and so has SADC implement the
reforms and write a democratic constitution and the nation will end all this
lawlessness. Tsvangirai failed to get not even one reform implemented and he
accepts a constitution "dictated" by a tyrant, of course it is not a
democratic constitution. And 3 million Zimbabweans, 95 %, approve this rubbish.

And two days after the referendum you complain about the new constitution not
stopping the Police abusing their powers, etc. You accepted a constitution so
weak and feeble it would not stop the abuse so why are you surprise?

Just start regretting at leisure as I said and let me say it here; you ain't
seen nothing yet! Next time, you will want to read something before signing it!

President Zuma called for full implementation
of the power-sharing pact widely known as the Global Political Agreement (GPA).

“It is extremely urgent that all matters agreed upon in terms of the GPA are
implemented speedily so that adequate preparations are made for a level playing
field for the forthcoming elections,” Zuma’s report reads.

Mugabe may have taken four years to “dictate”
this Copac constitution because it suited him to drag out the drafting process
but when it suits him to accelerate anything, he does. The referendum was done
and dusted in four weeks without even bothering to get the constitution to the
electorate.

Now that the constitution has been approved,
Mugabe will move swiftly to have it enacted so that the GPA can be buried and
all calls to implement reforms buried with it!

It is naïve to even think Mugabe will brook
implementing reforms now that the new constitution has just been approved. MDC
should have had the reforms implemented first before getting the new
constitution approved; Tsvangirai was warned but would not listen! President
Zuma is just wasting his breath, no reforms will be implemented now.

SADC
"should use a full Summit to assess whether Zimbabwe was ready for free, fair
and credible elections," said Prime Minister Tsvangirai in statement
following the arrest of three MDC officials and prominent lawyer, Beatrice
Mtetwa.

He
added that there seemed to be "no political will" from Mugabe's
Zanu-PF party to fully implement the peace deal brokered by the SADC.

By campaigning for a yes vote in the
referendum PM Tsvangirai has taken the country beyond the point of no return;
there is no return to the GPA and SADC overseeing Zimbabwe’s politics because
GPA will expire with the enactment of this Copac constitution; there will be no
reforms to be implemented because the new Copac constitution calls for no such
thing and there elections will go ahead regardless of the increasing political
violence!

Education minister and
senior MDC official, David Coltart, says a vote in favour is crucial to the
country's future.

"There's no other
viable alternative," David Coltart said. "If we vote no today all
that will happen is that we retain the existing thoroughly objectionable
constitution.

"The whole peace
process will breakdown and really we may lurch back into the calamitous
situation we were in in 2008."

I never thought I would ever
doubt that white Zimbabweans like David Coltart when they claimed they now see
the white colonial system as unjust, oppressive and discriminatory and that
they condemn it. One did not want to explore when exactly they had their “Saul on
the road to Damascus” conversion, particularly when many of them remained
actively involved in fighting to retain the status quo right up to 18 April
1980, the day of Zimbabwe’s independence. But when people Coltart talk of “there
is no viable alternative” for Zimbabwe; one has to wonder whether this is not a
throw back to his Rhodesian days!

Ever since the formation of the
GNU in 2008 the GPA set the roadmap for the country to move out of the
political and economic chaos and mayhem- implement democratic reforms and write
a democratic constitution. MDC including people like Senator Coltart were
supposed to push through this agenda and for five years they have failed to get
even one reform implemented and then the endorse what everyone can see is a
weak and feeble constitution.

Implementing the reforms would
have dismantled the dictatorship which is the root cause of the corruption and political
oppression and deliver free and fair elections – free of violence.

The consequence of the people
voting yes to this weak Copac constitution is that it will close the door to
all implementing the reforms, the nation is stuck with this rubbish
constitution and the nation will be dragged into yet another bloody election
process. Even at this the very last minute of the eleventh hour a NO vote in
the referendum would have forced the nation to turn back from taking this last step
into the abyss. How can anyone see sending the nation into the abyss be this as
the only viable solution?

“Diplomatic sources told
Zimbabwe Independent in separate interviews this week Sadc leaders feel the MDC
leaders have become too comfortable in government, forgetting their presence
was meant to create an environment conducive for credible, free and fair
elections,” reported the Zimbabwe Independent.

In other words Senator Coltart
has himself “become too comfortable in government” just as he was comfortable
with white colonial oppression; no doubt "there's no other viable
alternative" then!

Friday, 15 March 2013

Diplomatic sources told
Zimbabwe Independent in separate interviews this week Sadc leaders feel the MDC
leaders have become too comfortable in government, forgetting their presence
was meant to create an environment conducive for credible, free and fair
elections.

“Sadc has done a lot
for Zimbabwe,” said one diplomat. “It has been firm and resolute, but we are
disappointed with the MDC parties which have not been pushing strongly enough
for the necessary reforms that would allow for free and fair elections.”

“Resolution after
resolution has been adopted by Sadc but up to now, the three parties in the
inclusive government have chosen to ignore them. These resolutions are very
clear and there are even timelines to them, but months before critical
elections little has been implemented.”

Sadc has made key
resolutions on Zimbabwe, including implementation of an election roadmap at its
summits in Windhoek, Namibia, Livingstone, Zambia, Maputo, Mozambique and
Sandton, South Africa, which the MDC parties have seemingly dropped at the
weekly principals forum and cabinet meetings or in parliament.

At the Windhoek
summit in 2010, Sadc leaders adopted a report by South African President Jacob
Zuma, which called for implementation of 24 agreed GPA items to lay the basis
for free and fair elections.

The last thing SADC want to see happen in Zimbabwe is a
repeat of the violent elections of 2008 and the region is rightly alarmed that
Zimbabweans are going to vote yes in the referendum and close the door to all
referendum. SADC are so exasperated by all this blundering and dithering by PM
Tsvangirai and MDC and now they have chosen to speak to the people of Zimbabwe
over Tsvangirai’s head!

Zimbabweans can see for themselves that this Copac rubbish is NOT going to
end Zimbabwe’s culture of violence. Now if they will not believe their own eyes
then they should listen to SADC leaders.

What Zimbabweans must know, is that if they blindly follow the blundering
and dithering Tsvangirai and vote yes in the referendum then as night follows
day the nation will be plunged into yet another bloody elections. This time Zimbabweans
will be on their own because, frankly, SADC will not want to know!

Thursday, 14 March 2013

Ozias Tungawara, Director of the Africa Governance Monitoring and Advocacy
Project, told Violet Gonda on S W Radio Africa Hot Seat that Zimbabweans will
be voting yes under the illusion that the elections that will follow will be
free of violence.

Tungwarara said there is a misplaced perception that a Yes vote for the
draft constitution will deliver a credible election. He believes this will not
happen for a number of reasons, including the fact that there are few
fundamental reforms, which were supposed to work in tandem with the
constitution making process, under the Global Political Agreement.

Tungwarara is absolutely right there; many people will vote yes on Saturday
thinking and believing there will be no violence in this year. PM Tsvangirai
and his MDC friends have gone out of their way to deny or down play the reality
of the 2008 violence being repeated.

Worse still, both Zanu PF and the two MDC factions have stifled all
meaningful discussion on what would happen if people voted NO. A NO vote would force
the democratic reforms to be implemented – MDC would hate to have to admit they
failed to get the reforms implemented and Mugabe would rather die than to have
them implemented. Implemented the reforms and you dismantle the dictatorship, the
underlying institutional weakens, that have allowed violence to happen.

Of course if people understood the linkage between implementing the reforms,
ending the culture of violence and that the only way to force the implementation
of the forms was by rejecting this Copac constitution; there in no doubt the NO
vote would win the day on 16 March 2013.

So the rushed referendum and the lack of a free and dynamic media,
orchestrated by both Zanu PF and MDC, have been used to fool the people to act
to undermine their own best interests! The people trusted Tsvangirai and MDC in
this, it will be a great shock when they discover - which they will do soon
enough when the Zanu PF juggernaut is rolled out and is crashing them like ants
- they were betrayed.

Just as the people had trusted Mugabe and Zanu PF only to be betrayed they
will know Tsvangirai and MDC have too betrayed them.

WOZA
announces that its members will be voting yes in the referendum! Kusaziva kufa!
This is the one issue were quality leadership was called for and WOZA fell flat
on their faces!

“Of
the 92 demands, 60 were included in the Draft, 17 were partly acknowledged and
15 were not achieved,” said the WOZA statement. The statement did not say what
the 92 original WOZA demands were, which had been included, etc. but the
membership decided to give the Copac constitution a thumbs up.

“WOZA call on the government of national unity partners to walk the talk about
zero tolerance for violence in all its forms and to ensure the police will act
impartially to allow citizens to enjoy all their rights before during and after
the referendum,” continued the statement.

WOZA
members, of all people should know about Police brutality since they have been
on the business end of the Police’s whips. But the statement clearly shows the
group is not convinced the new constitution is robust enough to end the country’s
culture of political violence and brutal oppression. Their appeal for an end to
violence will fall on deaf ears.

The
threat of political violence, a repeat of 2008, is real and for the nation to ignore
this reality will be an act of folly for the nation will pay dearly for in
broken limbs and human lives.

So “free
and fair elections – free of violence” must surely be one of WOZA’s “not
achieved” demands and now the membership think the nation can live without it.
Well they are committing a serious and costly act of folly; because this is certainly
one of must have demands!

WOZA’s appeal to Mugabe’s whim as a basis for
ending the country’s culture of violence can only be born out of ignorance
because no nation can build its hope for peace and justice on such a shaky
foundation. The nation must be ruled by law and not the whim of a dictator.

Finance Minister Tendai Biti said it was
"criminal" that diamond mines and executives failed to submit their
profits to the state. (Zimbabwe Mail 13 March 2013).

According
to an international diamond watchdog, Partnership Africa Canada, at least $2 billion
were stolen by Mugabe's cronies from Zimbabwe's eastern diamond fields last
year alone.

"I will be appealing to both the President and
Prime Minister to make these companies pay. We are beginning to lose our
patience," said Minister Biti. "It is irresponsible and unpatriotic
and a breach of our laws."

Laws, what laws? We all know that Mugabe is the law of
the land and you are out there right now campaigning for a yes vote to a constitution
dictated by the tyrant to reaffirm his dictatorial powers! By appeal to Mugabe
you, Minister Biti, are tacitly acknowledge Mugabe’s supremacy over the country’s
laws and courts including parliament itself!

The nation must be ruled by law, only strong and
decisive laws can do that and not weak and feeble one like the Copac
constitution, and not the whim of a dictator!

Ever since the election violence in
both Kenya and Zimbabwe in 2008 people have tried to compare the two countries.
Beside the violence the two countries also had unity governments but that is as
far down the same path the two nations travelled after which they each two
different routes poles apart.

Whereas Kenya has tackled the
political violence of 2008 head-on; with some of these involved now awaiting
trial in The Hague including the winner of the just ended elections, Uhuru
Kenyata. In Zimbabwe, none of those responsible for the violence have ever come
to trial. The Zanu PF Justice Minister, Patrick Chinamasa has even dismissed
the violence as nothing but “a skirmish” although hundreds of thousands mainly
MDC supporters and innocent people were beaten and/or raped and over 500 murdered.

Kenya has since produced a democratic
constitution designed to maintain key institutions like the Police and
Judiciary apolitical. Mugabe has refuse to implement all the democratic reforms
and has even retain the fiercely partisan top brass in the Police, Army, CIO
and judiciary in command at the time in 2008 still to continue running these
key institutions.

The Copac constitution is nothing but
a dictator’s creed whitewashed to give fool the gullible.

Kenya has enjoyed a free press for
years now and during the just ended elections the presidential candidates had
two televised public debates. Mugabe and Zanu PF have retained their strangle
hold on the country’s large public print media whilst keeping a muzzle on the
small private print media through oppressive laws such as AIPPA and POSA. The
country’s electronic media, radio and TV, remains the exclusive domain of the
Zanu PF controlled public media. PM Tsvangirai has yet to be interviewed on TV talking
about his party and its policies.

There was certainly a desire by all
parties across Kenya’s political divide to stir the country away from the
totalitarian tendencies of the past regimes into the open calmer waters of democracy.
Sadly the same cannot be said of Zimbabwe; whilst Mugabe fought tooth and nail
to retain the dictatorship, Tsvangirai has turned out to be as politically spineless
as a common garden slug for he allowed Mugabe to get away with everything!

Whilst Kenya has just had an election
free of violence; the spectre of violence hangs large over Zimbabwe for
everything behind 2008’s violence is still in place and are waiting to be
launched! Zimbabwe’s next elections are set to be “bloodier” than 2008,
admitted MDC Home Affairs Minister Theresa Makone.

The only way to avoid the violence is
for the people to vote NO in the upcoming referendum on the Copac constitution.
It is none other than MDC who have taken it upon themselves to campaign for a
yes vote in the referendum and time is fast running out for them to change
their call!

Finance Minister Biti said there was need to
"vaccinate" the vote against violence as "self evidently in the
last few weeks there have been signs, sprouting shoots of violence ...
potential replication of the 2008 status quo."

The MDC has since the start of the year recorded over
120 incidents of violation and abuse of individuals, he said.

Two thirds of the six-million voters on the roll are
dead, said Biti, discussing irregularities with the crucial list.

"But unfortunately those four million who are
dead have had a tendency to resurrect on election day."

SADC has promised to look into these issues but other
than put another Band-Aid on a broken leg! What the problem has needed all
these years is decisive action – implement the reforms and stop all this pussyfooting.

The only way to vaccinate the vote against violence is
by implementing the reforms; MDC can get the reforms implemented by telling the
people the truth about this mess, admit there will be violence and thus tell
the people to vote no in the referendum.

Friday, 8 March 2013

Tsvangirai in yet
another “foot in the mouth disease” guff as one commentator called it!

“Ask yourself, had it
been me who died and she had survived, what would have happened?,” Tsvangirai
was quoted as saying by the NewsDay.

“One of the fundamental
things is that the main actor doesn’t die if the film is still on.”

Veteran journalist and
feminist Grace Mutandwa, reacting on Facebook, said: “After reading that, I
just thought WOW! Is he suggesting that Susan was a ‘bit’ actress so it was
okay because the main actor was still there, the show would go on?

“He really needs real
advisers not just hangers-on who tell him what he wants to hear. Currying
favour got us to where we are now – stuck in IMPUNITY SQUARE.” Well Grace got that one right! If the nation does not wake up and
realize where Tsvangirai is taking us with this yes vote than we will all pay
very dearly for this folly.

If people vote yes in the referendum then we will go into the elections - a
repeat of the 2008 violence!

Tuesday, 5 March 2013

God grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change;
Courage to change the things I can;
And wisdom to know the difference.

I have evoked this prayer, not because I am religious, but because
it encapsulated beautifully the three things I want to talk about today;
change, courage and wisdom.

The upcoming referendum is the very last chance for Zimbabweans to
achieve the democratic change that would propel us out of the desert of
despair, dictatorship, into the green valleys of hope, democratic rule.

Zimbabwe is a de facto Zanu PF dictatorship and all political
opposition has been routinely and ruthless silenced. The 2008 presidential run-off
elections showed just how brutal the dictatorship could be when over a million
Zimbabweans were internally displaced, hundreds of thousands were beaten and/or
raped and over 500 were murdered.

The whole world was shocked by the wanton violence of 2008 and
SADC instructed Zimbabwe GNU to implement a raft of democratic reforms whose
end product was very clear and explicit: to deliver free and fair election and
to stop the repeat of 2008 violence.

None, not ever one, of the reforms were implemented because Mugabe
refused and MDC were too incompetent to force the issue. Although everyone
could see there had been no change, still the people had accepted the hollow
assurance from PM Tsvangirai that the coming elections would be free and fair
and not a repeat of the 2008.

The nation’s false sense of security was shuttered on Saturday 23
February 2013 when a 12 year old boy, Christpower Simbarashe Maisiri, the son
of a MDC official in Headlands, was burnt to death after the hut the boy was
sleeping in was deliberately torched by known Zanu PF thugs. PM Tsvangirai and
his fellow MDC friends went into overdrive revising their lies that the nation
was heading for peaceful elections to acknowledging that the Zanu PF
dictatorship was indeed alive and very dangerous!

"This election is going to be bloodier than 2008"
admitted the MDC Home Affairs Minister, Theresa Makone on S W Radio Africa Hot
Seat programme. Well that speaks volumes! This is an admission that the party’s
hair cut changes in the Copac constitution will not bring free and fair
elections – free of violence.

MDC Secretary General Tendai Biti said the party was sending a
dossier to SADC giving details of the intimidations, harassment, beating and
even murders. This the first time the party has ever spoken of this dossier!

A high power MDC delegation was sent off to SADC “to discuss among
other things, the need for SADC to deliver a free and fair election,” a report
on MDC party website read. This is a knee-jerk MDC response; they not only run
to SADC but, worse still, they blame the regional body for the party’s own
breath taking incompetence. It is not for SADC to “deliver free and fair
elections” but for MDC to implement the reforms by seeing to it that the
required laws are passed in parliament. MDC had the parliamentary majority so
this should have been a breeze.

It was not until Christpower’s murder MDC had maintained that the
party would not brook boycotting the elections. On 31 January 2013 following a
high level MDC party retreat in Inyanga Nelson Chamisa the party’s National
Organising Secretary "The people of Zimbabwe have embraced the MDC and
have placed their hope in the party; hence, whatever the magnitude of the
persecution from which ever quarter, the people will vote in their numbers for
a new beginning and real transformation which will be brought about by the MDC
government."

If we remove the political rhetoric and the pseudo machismo – we
all know when the going gets tough Tsvangirai will once again have his mad dash
for the Netherlands Embassy and the rest of the MDC leaders will disappear like
mist in the morning African sun – we will have the chilling message: MDC will
drag the nation through another election regardless the cost in broken limbs
and lost lives.

After Christpower was murdered, MDC resubmitted the party’s old
Conditions for a Sustainable Election in Zimbabwe (COSEZ), which include
demands for a free media and the implementation of the reforms to dismantle the
Mugabe dictatorships. And renewed the threat too; the party will not
participate in any election unless the conditions are met.

Meanwhile on Saturday 2 March 2013 PM Tsvangirai was in Gweru for
the launch of the “Yes” campaign on the referendum.

Let me help you unpack this MDC mess. Whilst MDC accepts that it
is impossible to deliver free and fair elections without implementing the
reforms, hence the resubmitted COSEZ, what the party fails to grasp is the
reality that this Copac constitution is accepted in the referendum then the
door to implementing reforms will be shut. It is nonsense to talk of amending a
constitution that the populous has just adopted particularly when those
amendments are the very reforms Mugabe has resisted all these last five years!

If the truth be told, and it must be told, MDC are quietly reverting
to their chilling position; they will drag the nation through another election
regardless the cost in broken limbs and lost lives!

I was watching a wildlife
documentary about wildebeest migrating in search of good grazing. They had to
cross this flooded river and the point they happened to arrive at had steep
banks, 30 feet drop. The more savvy zebra would look for a safer crossing point
and if the river is flooded they would wait 3 or 5 days if necessary. Not so
with the wildebeest; it was tails up and jump. Many broke their legs, many were
swept away by the strong fast flowing flood and drowned and those that made it
across had the impossible task of climbing the steep and slippery bank on the
other side. What a carnage!

Zimbabwe’s 2008 chaotic and violent elections were carnage!

By failing to have the reforms implemented the country’s political
leaders had let the nation down. After five years of bickering amongst
themselves and wasting billions of dollars the GNU had brought the nation back
to the same political situation as in 2008, the same dangerous river crossing
point!

The referendum is giving the people their chance to decide whether
the critical reforms implemented. The need for the implementing the reforms has
not vanished, the reality of the repeat of the violence is still there and just
because the GNU failed to implement them does not mean no one else can.

A “YES” vote in the referendum means people do not want the
reforms and accept the politicians’ failure; it is yes to the violence; it is
tails up and jump! There will be another carnage, a repeat of 2008 or worse!

A “NO” vote be a demand for the reforms to be implemented, a
demand for a safer crossing point. Surely this is the common sense position.

Tsvangirai is the madman Chandagwinyira who will seat before a
blazing camp fire on a roasting hot day because that is what he has set his
mind to do. The truth only Mugabe has everything to gain from passing of this Copac
constitution his dictatorial powers confirmed in the constitution. Tsvangirai
will gain nothing from it and the people will lose everything. The only reason
Tsvangirai is out there campaign for a yes vote is because he will not listen
to reason. If the people, mainly out of ignorance, are foolish enough to follow
Chandagwinyira then they will pay dearly for their folly!

If this Copac constitution is adopted then this will constitute
the crossing point for the nation for decades to come; Zimbabwe’s elections
will be a chaotic and violence affair, a carnage, for years to come. Frankly
the world is fed up with Zimbabwe’s failure to sort out its political problems,
the sanctions will be lifted regardless of the level of violence and we will be
on our own.

This is the list of those who attended Christpower’ funeral: Prime
Minister of the Republic of Zimbabwe, The Right Honourable Morgan Richard
Tsvangirai and his good wife, Mai Elizabeth Tsvangirai; the Right Honourable
Deputy Prime Minister, Thokozani Khupe; “x” number of Ministers; ”y” MPs and
“z” hundreds of thousands of ordinary Zimbabweans. A great tribune indeed given
he was only 12 years old.

When all is said and done what will be remember for generations to
come is that Christpower died because the very politicians who buried him failed
to implement the necessary reforms.

The greatest tribute the
nation can pay to Christpower, in my humble opinion, would be if by his
gruesome death the nation was shocked into realizing the urgent need to address
this Zanu PF culture of violence decisive once and once for all and thus vote
NO in the referendum. Let the name of Christpower Simbareshe Maisiri be entered
in the annals of history as the last victim of Zanu PF wanton political
violence! That will be some small recompense for this innocent life so
ruthlessly and brutally cut short!

Saturday, 2 March 2013

MDC-T leader and Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai will headline a
‘Yes’ campaign rally in Gweru on Saturday as the party continues to canvass for
national endorsement of the country’s draft new constitution

These are the rallies PM Tsvangirai and MDC will have the full support of
the Police, indeed even Chipangano thugs will be harassing people to make sure
they are every well attended!

This Copac constitution is the only thing Tsvangirai has to show for all
his five years in the GNU and he has set his mind to getting the nation to
accept regardless of the fact that it is not the democratic constitution the
nation expected. This Constitution was "dictated" by Mugabe, a
tyrant, for Christ sake; it is really naive to expect it to be a democratic
one!

Tsvangirai ndiChandagwinyira, shavi rebenzi rinodziya
moto zuva richibanda nokuti raira rafunga kuita chinhu ronobva rangara dzeve! Tsvangirai
is possessed by the demon of the madman Chandagwinyira Blind Determination, who
would seat by the camp fire on a roasting hot day because once he decides to do
something absolutely nothing will ever stop him.
